And you may find yourselfLiving in a shotgun shackAnd you may find yourselfIn another part of the worldAnd you may find yourselfBehind the wheel of a large automobileAnd you may find yourself in a beautiful houseWith a beautiful wifeAnd you may ask yourselfWellHow did I get here?

Letting the days go byLet the water hold me downLetting the days go byWater flowing undergroundInto the blue againAfter the money's goneOnce in a lifetimeWater flowing underground

And you may ask yourselfHow do I work this?And you may ask yourselfWhere is that large automobile?And you may tell yourselfThis is not my beautiful houseAnd you may tell yourselfThis is not my beautiful wife

Letting the days go byLet the water hold me downLetting the days go byWater flowing undergroundInto the blue againAfter the money's goneOnce in a lifetimeWater flowing underground

Same as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever was

Water dissolvingAnd water removingThere is waterAt the bottom of the oceanUnder the waterCarry the waterRemove the water at the bottom of the ocean

Letting the days go byLet the water hold me downLetting the days go byWater flowing undergroundInto the blue againIn the silent waterUnder the rocks and stonesThere is water underground

Letting the days go byLet the water hold me downLetting the days go byWater flowing undergroundInto the blue againAfter the money's goneOnce in a lifetimeWater flowing underground

You may ask yourselfWhat is that beautiful house?You may ask yourselfWhere does that highway go to?And you may ask yourselfAm I right?Am I wrong?And you may say to yourselfMy godWhat have I done?

Letting the days go byLet the water hold me downLetting the days go byWater flowing undergroundInto the blue againIn the silent waterUnder the rocks and stonesThere is water underground

Letting the days go byLet the water hold me downLetting the days go byWater flowing undergroundInto the blue againAfter the money's goneOnce in a lifetimeWater flowing underground

Same as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever was...Same as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever wasSame as it ever was
